Yeah, that could be quite nice except it points out one of the big flaws
with toggle references which is that it doesn't work properly if more
than one thing is trying to use them. Eg if you had a language
interpreter take a toggle ref on a texture that was in the cache it
would then never be freed. I don't think that's an easy problem to solve
so it makes sense to assume that toggle refs can only be used by
language bindings.
